New house

[WhiteMamba]

My wife and I are moving to Tomball Texas in August and have finally found a house. Our offer was accepted yesterday and we will now start all the paperwork. Are there any Texas brothers close to Tomball or north Houston?

[dijit]

I can point you towards a few in that area.

Haha thanks guys. Adam I don't know the movie but probably not.

Remember to update your address for the CA newsletter.


:D

[WhiteMamba]

Haha yeah I almost posted the address so you guys could see the house and then I realized what a bad idea that would be.

Just point out where you plan to put the safe and when you both won't be at home...

When do you close?

We looked (and put an offer that was luckily shot down) on a house that had a built in safe as well. Too much of a pain to move it I guess?

May God Bless you in your new home!

God's blessings on the new home and your first call?

When & where is ordination?
What about installation?

[WhiteMamba]

Ordination at my home church in NC on August 7th.
Installation at my new church in Tomball TX on August 14th.

Congratulations on the new home in Tomball Michael, and please do let us all know when the new "mailbox" has been installed at su casa mi amigo:tu

[WhiteMamba]

Haha our house has an old style antique mail box that my wife really liked. I would like to keep it :)

For those who do not know, a pastor is only ordained once - into the Office of the Holy Ministry - it is a special event. A pastor's first congregation is also a special event. While he "might" be installed again is he ever accepts another call and leaves, but... the first one is always special.

So, if you interested in helping Michael celebrate these special events which are the culmination of 8 years of schooling, christening his new home, and his first call, let me know.

I could give you the address of the congregation (and the name of the senior pastor) and I am sure they'd gladly hold onto gifts from friends to welcome him to his first call.

[WhiteMamba]

haha thanks Rev. I will be ordained at my home church in NC on August 7th. I know you're probably busy but you are more than welcome to come lay hands on me if you like. Also, our/my church in Texas will be hosting the Brothers of John the Stedfast conference this coming winter. The weather will definitely be better than symposia.

I'd love to come down and lay hands on you, but I want to go north in the summer not south. OK, the real reason is that I don't have time off to make such a trip.

As for Symposia, it is your opinion that Texas weather is better in winter than northern weather. I happen to unconditionally disagree. You see, I do not like summer. I prefer is cold!

[WhiteMamba]

haha I guess we will have to just agree to disagree. besides weather is non-fundamental doctrine anyway :)

Todd - if you could give us an address, we could bomb the entire town back to the stone age. Young Michael is legendary for enjoying a good pounding by his BOTL!

[WhiteMamba]

haha Neil I thought maybe moving further south would be safer from your northern aggression.

I do not know if I want to post the congregation's address here on this thread, but if you (or anybody else) would e-mail me, I'd be glad to give it to you.

Today I was ordained at my home congregation in NC. I was a wonderful day. We close on our house in Texas on Wednesday and I will be installed at my new congregation on the 14th.
